VISIT YOU LOCAL ELECTRONICS STORE, YOU HAVE TWO WAYS TO DO THIS. SO CHECK OUT PRICES AND VISUALLY INSPECT VEHICLE TO DECIDE WHICH WAY YOU WANT TO GO. 1. YOU CAN TAP INTO THE FACTORY FUSE BLOCK WITH A MINI FUSE TAP, (WITH A FUSE ATTACHED TO THE WIRE, CLOSE TO THE FUSE BLOCK) RUN A WIRE TO A CIGARET PLUG ADAPTER (TO PLUG THE CELL CHARGER INTO) YOU'LL NEED TO CHECK FOR A CONSTANT ON POWER SUPPLY IN FUSE BLOCK BEFORE STARTING. USE A TEST LIGHT, OR A VOLT/OHM METER. GOOD LUCK, AND DON'T FORGET TO UNPLUG CHARGER WHEN NOT IN USE.

Does the car charger draw juice if the car cell phone is not attached?
It depends on the car. Some vehicles shut off power to the lighter port when the ignition is not cranked. Others do not. If your car still allows power to the port, then the charger will still draw from it, phone plugged in or not.

Does it run down the car battery to use cell phone charger?
It should not bother a car that is routinely driven. A cell phone charger draws very little power.
Is it possible to turn on phone with no battery while connected to charger?
Yes, the outlet will be used to power the phone. Try it.
Why does a cell phone charger continue to consume power when plugged into an outlet but not the phone?
Most electronics will consume a little power even if they are off or not in use. In the case of a cell phone charger, you may notice that if it is plugged into the wall, but there is no cell phone charging, the charger will still be warm. I don't know the physics behind that, but anything that is plugged in will take up a little energy, even when not in use.
Is a phone charger a switched mode power supply?

How do you charge phone battery on computer. I lost my phone charger but have my camera plugin which connects my phone to the computer?
You need a suitable USB lead - that fits your phone's charger socket. The moment you connect the phone to your computer, it will draw power from the USB socket. Any phone shop should be able to supply you with a lead for the the phone. Another alternative - is to buy an external USB charger. I have a Sony Ericcson phone, the supplied charger works perfectly well - but - I have a separate USB charger (only cost about £3.00) - which is just big enough to hold a battery. Check out places like Amazon or eBay.
Why does the fuse blow when plugging a phone charger into new diy cigarette lighter?

Why does a cell phone charger drain a battery?
As long as the charger is connected to its power source it will take a small amount of power from that source (even if the phone is not connected to it), regardless of whether it is an AC "wall wart" charger or a cigarette lighter charger (although normally turning the car ignition off turns the cigarette lighter outlet off, so if it drains the car battery the car ignition switch may have a problem). If the phone is connected to the charger it may continue to take extra power even with the phone fully charged (I have a Tracfone that will drain my battery powerpack completely (if not connected to a charger its internal battery drains completely in less than 2 days even if I'm not using it at all -- this phone has something wrong in it). The real issue is now fast the charger is draining the battery. BTW, I am assuming above that you mean an external battery that the charger is connected to, not the internal battery of the cell phone itself (if this is the case I would say the phone is seriously defective as this would normally not be possible).
Does a mobile phone charger use power when the mobile phone not on it?
It depends for exaple some chargers have a light on it, that takes energy not much but it does other then that no.
When charging a cell phone should you plug in wall outlet first?
It really does not make much of a difference. However, I would plug in the charger into the cell phone first, THEN into the AC power socket/outlet. The reason why is that it is usually harder to attach the charger plug into the phone. If you're pushing it in and it doesn't fit, you're making a partial connection. This may tax the power protection circuitry in the phone, because the charger is already plugged into the wall. So, best to plug it into the phone first, then into the wall.
